As an art form, tattoos have been adopted for thousands of years with the aim of representing certain ideals and certain beliefs. Nowadays, people no longer get tattooed just to commemorate their victories or as a symbol of magical protection or hierarchy, but as a way to immortalize, on the skin, something of a more personal nature. That’s why family-friendly designs have been increasingly successful lately.
we, from awesome.club, we love themes related to family life. Therefore, we are going to present, in this post, 11 tattoo suggestions that clearly represent the idea of love and the bonds we maintain with our loved ones.
1. Family Tree
This type of tattoo refers to adaptability, strength, knowledge, protection and growth. In addition, family trees are often used to systematically structure a sequence of development of a given family from ancestors to younger descendants. Therefore, this type of design is usually very successful among people looking for tattoos with references to the family.
2. “Ohana”
This word became very well known with the movie Lilo & Stich. The term “Ohana” emerged in Hawaiian culture and means “family”. In addition, the concept of Ohana itself refers to the idea that all individuals from the same family unit are united and support each other.
3. birds
Birds are territorial, intelligent and gregarious animals, as they live in groups, which guarantees them not only protection from predators, but also support in matters such as feeding and caring for their young. Therefore, tattoos referring to this type of animal represent freedom, union, vitality and aspects related to motherhood and family protection.
4. Dates of Birth
For many people, the births of children, grandchildren and even nephews, for example, are events that can bring joy, family changes and, of course, an increase in the number of family members. Therefore, many people choose tattoos of the birth dates of loved ones as a show of affection or as a good memory of these important and happy moments.
5. faces
Tattooing the faces of family members is one of the most representative ways of honoring the people we care about and appreciate. Drawing, on your own skin, the traits of these people is, above all, a way to immortalize them and show how important they are to us.
6. Baby feet
The “stamp” of the foot of the newborn child or grandchild has become an increasingly common tattoo option as a reference to the family. As in the case of the date of birth, this is also a way to immortalize the affection for a dear child, grandchild or nephew, for example.
7. Tattoos with the word “family” and other related ones
Another simple and quite direct way of showing love for our relatives. Words like “family”, “union”, “mother” or “children” speak for themselves. And, if you want to give it a different and personal touch, talk to a good tattoo artist and ask for tips to put, next to or above the words, an extra element. Or to use a different font.
8. Puzzle Pieces
The puzzles are designed to test your logical thinking by putting the pieces together as quickly as possible. In tattoos, this type of theme can mean many things, but when associated with family, it symbolizes the connection between its members.
9. Heart-shaped fingerprints
This type of tattoo has a similar meaning to those that represent the “stamps” of baby feet. Its meaning, however, is a little broader, due to the fact that these marks can belong, not only to our children, nephews and grandchildren (as is usually more common in the case of little feet), but also to our parents, siblings and grandparents. In addition, by joining two fingerprints, thus forming a heart, we give the tattoo a connotation of affection.
10. Matching tattoos
Often, boyfriends, friends and couples with more time together tattoo the same designs as a way to demonstrate the bond that unites them. This type of tattoo is usually very personal and allows you to adopt super original designs that make reference to these two people.
11. Drawings made by children
Children, in general, have a very creative mind and they demonstrate this, for example, through drawings representing their family, friends, toys, etc. For parents, drawings of this type can have such a great and sentimental meaning that they choose to for immortalizing on the skin, with pride and love, these moments of creativity and sweetness.
